How to Save Money on Your Wedding Accessories, Written in Jacksonville

To quote legendary financier Sanford Weill, "details create the overall dish." Though Weill was likely talking about business, nothing could be more accurate when it comes to wedding style. Brides often focus so intently on their gowns they overlook the need for details; namely, accessories.

Wedding accessories like headpieces, shoes and jewelry add those special finishing touches to create an overall image of wedding ensemble perfection. But not just any veil or satin heel will do. With a little bit of know-how, it's not hard to creatively coordinate your look. Here are some tips for coordinating your wedding accessories to match your personal style.

Bohemian Chic

Flowing tresses, flowing dresses and flowers galore. This lady may be laid-back, and not when it comes to her wedding style. Summer bohemian brides will cherish the sunlight, breathable Solid Pashmina Wrap. Winter wedding? Ward off the chill in boho-chic and animal friendly style with the Satin Mid-Length Cape with Faux Fur Trim.

Let your hair down and accentuate your tresses with the Bridal Set of Four Gardenia Flower Hair Coils. These small satin gardenias accented with delicate sprays of Swarovski crystal rhinestones add just the right touch of sparkle without having to be overdone.

Beach or mountaintop wedding? Walk along the aisle in security in CeeCee flip-flops, which has a comfy cushioned wedge sole as well as a shimmer of rhinestone detailing. Otherwise, choose a Peep Toe d'Orsay heel using a colorful floral print and rosette accent on the front face from the shoe. Carry your necessities in style using the Victorian Frame Bag. Rich with detailed beading, this convertible (with chain strap) clutch closely resembles a well used heirloom piece.

Modern Maven

Sleek lines, hot trends and elegance for miles. This urban bride is definitely about the leading edge of fashion, and her bridal ensemble is not any exception. From her tailored Long Sleeve Satin Bolero Jacket to her Glitter Elongated Clutch, every accessory she selects is polished and striking.

Naturally, knowing all the latest trends, she pairs the Bridal Russian Net Facial Blusher Veil which has a flower comb underneath. The short tulle blusher blends Hollywood glam and metro chic. For the veil-phobic, the Pinwheel Feather Flower Clip with Rhinestone Center is the perfect option. This large, feathery accent is perfect for refined hairstyles requiring merely a single flower.

Speaking of flowers, trendy brides everywhere are donning splashes of color to their wedding wardrobes. All the rage today: big flowers. The modern maven wears the Flower Pin in crimson red. This bold eye-catcher defies traditional wedding style rules, and that is just the way she likes it. This is a woman who loves her shoes. For this fashion forward bride, it's Cyndi by Coloriffics lace-up sandal with 3 1/2" heel. Looks straight away from a 5th Avenue boutique. Tres magnifique!

Glamour Girl

Tiaras, glitz and sky-high heels. A little bit diva plus a lot delightful, many glamour girls get pegged with all the "bridezilla" label. Deep down, they're simply misunderstood. They know what they desire, and as long as they understand it, they're happy. And what, exactly, means they are happy? For one, the Fur Wrap, a stylish faux fur stole that perfectly completes winter months bride's trousseau. Next, obviously, may be the Stretch Satin Elbow Length Glove. A must in every color for glamour girls spanning various ages.

Shoes, needless to say, are necessary to the beautiful bride. Heels. The higher the better. The Dyeable Satin Platform with Ornament Ring Detail does not disappoint. This stacked platform is hip, saucy and includes a sparkling rhinestone brooch accent for extra glam power.

Topping off this head-to-toe perfection: the Bridal Open Regal Style Tiara with Crystals. This stunner features Swarovski rhinestone flowers and -bling heaven!- multi-size Swarovski accent rhinestones. Embellishment spans 6 inches and is one inch high, allowing her to be a true princess bride. Whether you fall into one of these categories, or tend to be this mixture and match type, while you are true to your individual style, you'll look positively ravishing on "I do" day.
